Council OKs $444,622.50 bid for Green Alley Phase II
Summary
Council approved a $444,622.50 contract/pay request to M&J Underground for Green Alley Phase II, to be funded by MWRD and Cook County. The bid came in below the engineer's estimate.
Council approved a pay request and contract award to M&J Underground in the amount of $444,622.50 for the Green Alley Phase II project. The project will be funded by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District (MWRD) grant and Cook County funding, and the council approved the item on a unanimous 4-0 vote.
City staff noted the bid was lower than the engineer's cost estimate and that construction is anticipated to begin in a couple of weeks. The project advances the city's alley stormwater improvements under the MWRD program and is part of broader climate-resilience work funded by county and regional programs.
The council's approval formally clears the contract so the contractor can mobilize and coordinate construction timing with the city and funders.
